1 Be Safe with Dogs: Advice for You and Your Family Dogs are not inherently aggressive and will usually only bite or chase when provoked. Dog bites in Palestine are not common, with only a small number being reported to authorities each year. As such, aggression from dogs is not major problem. Having said that, we know that some people are scared of dogs, others may think they are dirty or carry diseases and, especially for those people who may have been bitten or chased by a dog before, these fears are very real and should be taken seriously. This leaflet is designed to advise you and your family how to be safe around dogs. You will learn some simple tips on how to deal with dogs who might behave aggressively, and how to read some basic body language so that you are not taken by surprise by a dog.
2 Why might dogs behave aggressively? - When they feel threatened. - When they want to protect their young. - When they feel scared. - When they feel that they need to defend themselves. - If they are taken by surprise (for example, if woken from a deep sleep). - When they are interrupted when they are eating. - If provoked deliberately (throwing stones at them, kicking them, hitting them). Did you know? There has NOT been a reported case of rabies in the West Bank for over twenty years.
3 How can I tell if a dog is aggressive? Any dog can behave aggressively in the above situations but there are ways in which you can spot how they might be feeling from their body language. Below are some indicators that you can use to judge a dog s mood. Frightened dog: Lying or crouched low to the ground, ears flattened against the head, tail between legs. Angry dog: Teeth bared, growling or barking in short, sharp bursts. Body may be low to the ground or could be standing straight. Staring at you.
4 Stressed dog: Repeated licking of lips (when not eating or drinking), regular yawning. Happy, playful dog: Tail held high and wagging back and forth, drops front paws to the ground and keeps rear high in a bow, mouth wide.
5 Approaching a dog safely Even well-trained pet dogs can behave aggressively if you approach them in a way which makes them nervous or scared. Use these tips when approaching any dog you do not know. - If there is no reason for you to approach the dog, the best thing to do is leave the dog alone. This is the easiest way to avoid any unwanted aggression and is the best thing to do in most cases with stray dogs in your neighbourhood. - If the dog is a pet, always ask the owner if it is okay to approach the dog. If they say no, please respect their wishes. If they say yes, ask them if the dog likes to be stroked. Again, please respect their wishes. - If you are approaching a dog you do not know, approach slowly and where the dog can see you. Do not approach a dog from behind or move towards the dog quickly as this could be seen as threatening. - Hold out you hand slowly and gently, with the palm facing towards the floor and the back of the hand facing up. Allow the dog to sniff your hand. Do not try to touch the dog. If the dog growls or shows signs of fear, then move away slowly. This is a sign that he or she does not want you to come near. - Talk quietly to the dog with your gaze averted. Do not make direct eye contact as this can be seen as a threat. Crouch low to the ground if you can do not lean your body over the top of the dog as this could be seen as threatening. - If the dog is calm and shows no sign that he or she is nervous or angry, you can gently stroke the dog on the back. Do not try to stroke or touch a dog you do not know on the head. - If the dog tries to move away from you at any time, do not follow or chase him or her. Let them go. - If the dog enjoys the contact, he or she may try to instigate a game with you. You may have just made a new friend! Remember: If a dog moves away, growls or shows other sign of nerves, fear or aggression, move away slowly. This is the dog telling you not to continue and may be a precursor to a bite. Watch the dog s body language to stay safe.
6 What do I do if the dog does not seem friendly? What if a dog approaches me and I am scared? - Stand still and upright but turn your gaze away from the dog. Do not stare straight at the dog as this can be seen as threatening. - If you holding food or something else that the dog may be interested in, then throw it away from you gently. When the dog goes to look, walk away slowly. - Do not run away, even if you feel scared. - Do not scream or shout at the dog. What if a dog jumps up at me? - Try to stay calm. Do not scream or try to run away. - Stand still and cross your arms over your chest. Turn your body to the side. - When you can, walk away from the dog slowly. What if a dog knocks me over? - Curl up in a ball and cover your head and face with your arms. - The dog will sniff you will probably move away. - When you feel safe, gently get to your feet and walk away from the dog slowly. Are my children safe around dogs? Never, ever leave young children alone with a dog. It doesn t matter how friendly the dog is normally or if the dog knows your child well, a young child will not be able to read warning signs if a dog feels scared or uncomfortable. Children and dogs sometimes make great friends and companions, but always supervise your children around animals to avoid problems. Even when supervised, children can do things that dogs just don t like. Please help your children learn the following: - Running around and shouting may frighten a dog be calm and gentle around dogs. - People love hugs and kisses but dogs can find this threatening. Teach your children not to grab, hug, pull or sit on dogs and give them some space. - Don t approach a dog who is eating or sleeping. The dog may be frightened or startled and bite. - If the dog is a pet and has a favourite toy, don t take it away from them or play with it (unless it s part of a game that the dog is playing too!) as the dog may get upset. - Don t throw things at dogs or tease them. They may get injured or bite if they feel threatened. - Mother dogs will be protective of her offspring. If she gives you signs that she does not want you to go near her puppies, please stay away.
7 Be Safe with Dogs Dogs kept as pets can be great friends, loyal companions, energetic playmates and loving members of the family. They have different personalities and can be lively, quiet, calm, funny, sweet or all of these things rolled into one. Having a dog companion in your life can be rewarding, with both you and your dog enjoying each other s company. Stray dogs are just the same as pet dogs, but they may not be used to being around people and might be more likely to behave aggressively out of fear. If you leave a street dog alone, he or she will be unlikely to bother you at all. Remember, dogs are not inherently aggressive and will not normally bite or chase unless provoked. By following the simple steps outlined in this leaflet, we hope that you and your family can feel safe around dogs.
